A Nation That Kills Its Children Cannot Stay Free

from The American Soul · host Jesse

Drop us a note about the podcast. Massachusetts just removed statutory limits on abortion, and the public celebration around it raises a brutal question: what does a society become when it calls the killing of the unborn “care”? We start with Scripture that condemns child sacrifice and the shedding of innocent blood, then lay that warning alongside modern policy, arguing that a nation can normalize almost anything once it decides its children are disposable.From there, we wrestle with the spiritual fallout. We talk about why there’s no meaningful “middle ground” with a movement that celebrates abortion, and we make a clear distinction between mercy for people and tolerance for evil. If you’ve had an abortion or pushed someone toward one, we also say this plainly: forgiveness through Jesus Christ is real, but it comes with repentance and a turning back to God, not excuses dressed up as virtue.Then we pivot to the home. Divorce is devastating for kids, but we also explore how a chronically dysfunctional marriage can quietly drive children away because there’s no peace to come back to. We read Romans 8 and Psalm 18 as anchors for endurance, hope, and spiritual strength, and we reflect on America’s moral foundations through De Tocqueville and a quote attributed to Patrick Henry, asking what happens to freedom when a people reject God.Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.
